Adrian Beltre remains with the Texas Rangers but he might approve a trade to a contending team in August.

Beltre has only been to one World Series, which came in 2011 in his first season with the Rangers.

"More or less knowing where I'm going to be for the next -- who knows," Beltre said after the non-waiver deadline passed Tuesday when the Rangers were in Arizona. "I cannot sit here and say 100 percent I'm going to finish the season here, which I'd be happy to do. But you never know what comes up."

Jon Daniels was in constant contact with Beltre in the weeks leading up to the non-waiver deadline.

Beltre described the last couple of weeks as "a lot of thinking" and "wait and see." He also said nothing got close enough for him to have to make a decision. He said there weren't many teams willing to meet his requirements.

"I didn't want to be a bench player, and it didn't work out," Beltre said, not identifying any potential teams.
